"Where are the people? If I announce my intention to go south, how many people will be willing to follow?" Although the affairs of the army make people happy, Liu Feng also attaches great importance to the affairs of the people. When there is good news for the army, Liu Feng also wants to follow the people. Looking forward to it. Liu Feng couldn't help turning his head and asked Lu Sudao.
"Don't worry, your highness. If your highness announces that he will go south, the people will definitely follow him." Lu Su smiled slightly and raised his fist. Then, he paused and explained: "I guess it was because Zheng Bao was too strong in the past. When your highness comes, The warehouses were opened to release grain, and the control was stopped. For a time, the people were very happy, and they were all grateful to His Highness. In addition, Yangzhou is currently in chaos, with Zhang Duo, Xu Qian, Liu Xun, Lei Bo, Chen Lan and other princes fighting in a scuffle. The people know that Once they leave the protection of the army, they will be the targets of plunder. And His Highness Renai is naturally determined to follow His Highness south."[
"It's hard to leave your homeland, but if you are at the end of your rope, you have to go outside to seek life. Yangzhou is in chaos, but I have benefited from it." Liu Feng sighed and said.
It's not that Liu Feng likes troubled times, troubled times are too tragic. But since he is in troubled times, Liu Feng has to be ambitious in order to protect himself in troubled times.
Since you don't like troubled times, then gain supreme power and calm the troubled times.
Liu Feng's eyes flashed and he quickly suppressed the sigh in his heart.
Not long after, Liu Feng said with a smile: "The situation can be said to be very good." After a pause, Liu Feng put away his smile and ordered: "In three days, we will set off for Jingchu."
"Promise." Zhao Yun and Lu Su promised.
After Liu Feng made the decision, Zhao Yun and Lu Su also resigned.
In the room, Liu Feng's eyes flashed, he looked up to the west, and said in his heart, Liu Biao, I'm here.
In this era, the roads were very difficult. Not only because the roads were difficult to walk, but also because there were so many bandits on the roads. Therefore, when Zheng Bao was killed by Lu Su, the news spread over a relatively long period of time.
Zheng Bao is nothing in the whole world, but in Yangzhou, he is a big thief who has been running rampant for a long time. It can be said that he is powerful in Yangzhou.
His death sent a huge shock in Yangzhou and surrounding areas.
Shu County, five hundred miles west of Chaohu, was occupied by Zhang Duo and Xu Qian.
The two men originally worked independently, each with 10,000 troops and more than 3,000 soldiers. However, because they were weak, they often fought with Zheng Bao, which was disadvantageous. Later, the two simply joined forces and formed a small army with 20,000 tribes and more than 6,000 soldiers. The princes used this to compete with Zheng Bao.
Because the power of both sides became equal, Zheng Bao never attacked Zhang Duo and Xu Qian again. Therefore, a relatively peaceful scene formed.
But this does not mean that Zhang Duo and Xu Qian no longer hate Zheng Bao. When they heard that Zheng Bao was killed by Lu Su, they were naturally overjoyed.
In the city of Shu County, in the prefect's mansion.
Zhang Duo, Xu Qian and some of the leaders under their tents sat down on their knees to discuss Zheng Bao's death.
"This big enemy was finally killed, haha, it's so refreshing." Zhang Duo laughed.
"Exactly, the day that I have been waiting for for many years." Xu Qian also laughed.[
The other leaders had also fought with Zheng Bao in the early years. Now the two leaders laughed, and they also laughed one after another, feeling quite relieved.
"But who is this Lu Su? Have you ever heard of him? He actually defeated Zheng Bao with five hundred steps." After laughing, Zhang Duo suddenly asked, with doubts on his face.
"I have heard that this Lu Su subordinate is a famous person in Dongcheng and has some wisdom." A leader who knew who Lu Su was immediately replied.
"Ah, there is some strategy. According to the rumor, Zheng Bao first led his troops to attack rashly and was killed, and then Lu Su used a trick to seize Chaohu. This news seems to be true." Zhang Duoluo said thoughtfully.
"A man of resourcefulness is definitely not very capable of leading troops. What do you think, Brother Zhang?" Xu Gan's eyes lit up and he said.
"Zheng Bao is nothing in the world, but he is still a big shot in Yangzhou. He has 20,000 to 30,000 people and 5,000 to 6,000 soldiers and horses under his command. Although Lu Su captured Chaohu with a trick, his own power was not enough. , it will definitely take a lot of time to regulate the various forces, and we can take advantage of the situation to seize this wealth and grow stronger. If we succeed, we will become the largest force in Yangzhou, except for Sun Ce and Liu Xun."
Zhang Duo's eyes sparkled and he said ambitiously.
"Okay." Xu Qian was so excited that he shouted "Okay."
Together, the two of them decided on the strategic goal of attacking Lu Su. Their greedy eyes were ready to move.
